Encounters With The Good People

We’re going North! On this week’s episode we share tales of Trolls and Elves of Scandinavian Folklore, but you can bin any notion of cartoonish Trolls and ethereal Elves. These creatures are clever, cunning and co-ordinated: underestimate them at your peril...I am also delighted to introduce you to a fabulous folklorist named Anna Bridgland who knows more about Trolls and Elves than most. Anna has been producing quality, original videos on the subject of Scandinavian and British Folk and Faerie Lore for many years and I am so pleased she has dropped in to chat with us at Encounters. Anna shares her sense of the Good People, their connection to the natural world and reads one of her favourite tales: ‘The Elves Dance’. Anna’s thoughtful voice and manner compliment her insights into Faerie and, if you enjoy my YouTube videos, I am certain you will like Anna’s videos too.Please be sure to drop into Anna’s YouTube channel and say 'Hi', and don’t forget to let her know you heard her on the ‘Encounters’ Podcast.
